Depends on how tight a curve. A fairly wide curve can usually be done with wood that has been soaked for a few hours, loosening it up and allowing it to be bent around the curve and fastened in place.

The other way is to cut vertical slots in the back of the molding every eighth or quarter of an inch. They go about half way through. This allows the wood to bend and will usually leaves the front flexible enough to bend. Again letting the wood get really damp helps.

Can you use casing instead of crown moulding?

You can use anything you want, but, crown moulding has 45deg flats on the back so they sit even between the ceiling and wall. If you use anything but crown, you would have to make marks on the wall or ceiling so it runs level around the room. With crown moulding, it is better to cope the pieces instead of the 45 deg cut on ends.

How can you make crown moulding profiles?

First of all, pull up different crown moulding profiles, baseboard as well as dental moulding profiles from a trim molding supplier online. Most websites provide PDF files of their moulding profiles that are to scale. Sketch a straight line across the top of a piece of graph paper. Sketch a line 90 degrees to the last line in order to represent the wall of the graph paper. Cut out your moulding profiles that you downloaded from the internet. Position the various moulding profiles on the graph paper with the aim to make customized crown moulding profiles, which will give you an idea of how the built-up crown moulding profiles will appear once it has been installed on the wall. Pick up a sample of each one of the moulding profiles that you chose to use from the trim supplier. Secure them firmly together with the help of glue and nails in a way that you would want to assemble them onto the wall. Once it has dried thoroughly, place it up against the wall to confirm whether or not you like the moulding profiles. Install the built-up crown moulding profile one piece at a time. Make use of the sample mock up of the moulding profile as a reference to demarcate a line where it will start on the wall. From the ceiling, measure the distance all the way to the bottom of the built-up crown moulding profiles. Transfer this distance to each end of one wall and mark the location there with the help of a pencil or marker. Use a chalk line to draw a straight chalk line along the wall, which will serve as a reference line to place the first piece of crown moulding profiles. Repeat the process for the remaining walls.
